The odds of nabbing a ticket to Michael Jackson's memorial are now slimmer!

Paper thin, even.

The lottery was originally only open to residents of the States, but the drawing to win two tickets to the memorial at LA's Staples Center on Tuesday is now open to the entire world.

According to the new rules, "additional legal terms have been incorporated into the conditions of entry to allow non-U.S. residents the opportunity to register for the random ticket drawing."

Good luck, universe!

You've got until 6:00 pm PT!

Whoo whoo!

The crazy train is pullin' into the station!

Courtney Love is back at it!

On the heels of reportedly trashing her room at LA's Chateau Marmont last month, Chatty Cathys over at The Inn in NYC tattled on Love and her disgusting living accommodations while staying at the swanky hotel on Irving Place.

According to new reports, the now-skeletor C-Love left the hotel room littered with dirty needles and "used feminine hygiene products" while visiting NYC last month with her daughter, Frances Bean.

"She caused so much damage in eight hours and wreaked so much havoc. It was actually kind of funny… minus the $5,000 in repairs," said one insider.

Was Court too freaked to flush her tampons or something???

Grossness!

Legendary late pitchman Billy Mays' funeral was held in McKees Rocks, Pennsylvania on Friday, and pals of Mays paid fitting tribute to their close friend.

The pallbearers at Billy's funeral all donned bright blue OxiClean button-downs while paying their last respects!

Those, of course, are the same shirts most famously worn by Mays himself in his popular infomercials for his top selling multi-purpose cleanser.

Brings a tear to our eye!

And now for your 4th of July safety tip from country pop sensation, Taylor Swift!

Don't pick up hot shiz!

Swift shared an Independence Day childhood memory on her official blog, recalling how her passion for "sparkly things" caused her more harm than fun.

Writes Taylor:

When I was younger, I was always that little kid who would run around picking up used sparklers off the ground and I would inevitably pick up the SCALDING HOT BURNING end that was still smoldering. Then cue the screaming bloody murder in front of everyone and running into the house to ice your hand. All the adults are shaking their heads because they saw you do the same thing last year.

Ouch!

Be safe today, bbs!

The Staples Center must have bulked up their servers big time!

The venue's website was visited over 500 million times within the first hour of opening registration for Michael Jackson's memorial!!!!

Out of those 500 million, only 17,500 fans will be awarded a ticket for the memorial service through a lottery.

Although the Jackson family set up the lottery to cut down on confusion, you just know that shiz will be on Craigslist in a few days for major $$$$$!
